Item Description
8vo. 9.75 X 6.5 inches, Concertina type view-book of glazed lithos, containing 21 different images and two fine panoramas, one of Folkestone from the sea and one of Sandgate. Printed in Germany. This type of view book originates in Germany and is an example of the curious mixture of photograph and engraving which were prolific from about 1875 to 1895 when photography finally won the day. This example must date from after 1884 as the pier and cliff lift are shown.
